Since it began in 2003, the movement has taken root in over 40 countries and been adapted to 22 different languages. Eating less meat and more healthy plant-based foods can help reduce the incidence of chronic preventable diseases, preserve precious land and water resources, and combat climate change. More information is available at the “Meatless Monday” website. This event was created by Sustainable Wellesley and the League of Women Voters of Wellesley in the interest of fostering both community support for those who need it, as well as an awareness of the many ways individuals can act to promote a more sustainable lifestyle. Sustainable Wellesley strives to engage residents, businesses and the Town of Wellesley to take sustainable actions to protect biodiversity; minimize waste; and ensure environmental justice.
